www.avca.org/award/2023-avca-division-i-womens-regional-awards/Asjia and Madi made all-regional 1st team. Molly and Ella chosen as HM! (It's only 1st Team and HMs) Madi won Regional POY, and Ella is FOY. Madi was expected but YEEAAAAAAH ELLA Also: 4 1st teamers for BYU and 3 for Houston is sus as hell, given that they finished conference 13-5 and 11-7 respectively, and both just got bounced out of the tournament Texas really suffered from what alot of other teams in the past have Having one or two DOMINANT players who carry the team, with the rest being support roles. (I think Halter should of made a team) So Skinner/Oneal > Houston and BYU players, even though they have more

how many folks typically show up to the haymaker for vb? I've never been, but during the season they would have 25 ish? Based on what I've seen on FB. Would expect a bigger crowd for the tournament

Not sure if Tennessee (under this head coach) has reached the round of 16, but I don't think so. While the "been there done that" experience favors Texas, there are always a couple of programs who make some milestone strides in the post-season. Haven't watched much of the Vols this season, but I recall they got swept at South Carolina to end the regular season. Other than that, not many teams have gotten the best of them. Kentucky and Arkansas handled them easily and both games were on Tennessee's home court.

Honestly ever since Swindle stopped jump setting, she has looked really good. Idk if the boot is causing her to not jump set or if it was a coaching decision but man she looks really good with setting with her foot staying on the floor. I think her remaining on her feet helps with her special awareness, the only small problem with this is her dumps are going to become even more predictable. If she’s not jump setting, when she jumps up to dump, it will give more hints to other teams. (Luckily she’s 6’7 so she doesn’t have to try too hard get up) But clearly the main goal is to clean up the sets a little so dumping is on the back burner Pretty sure you meant 6'11

Found it laughable some were talking about the Texas vs uconn basketball game in this volleyball thread.
Hint: UCONN was missing 2 starters going into this game - one of them is out for the year. It is no shocking news UCONN lost this game. They are going to lose a lot of games this year. UCONN has the number 1 ranked recruiting team in 2024 and are off to an excellent start in recruiting in 2025. They will be back, but not this year.
Don't make it sound like Texas just beat an awesome team this year. They haven't yet.
Texas will be getting a lot better with Gaston coming back.

I remember in 1997 when 5 fanbases tore down goalposts after beating a 4-7 Texas team. UConn is still women’s basketball royalty, and it’s still a big win.

I'll keep my reply short: Texas was missing one senior starter, too, in Gaston. Injuries are part of sports; if you don't have quality depth, that falls on the shoulders of the head coach, even the Hall of Famers!

UCONN has been at the top for a long time, so long that they should still be good and find ways to win whether they’re missing someone or not, same thing goes with the top teams in volleyball. Injuries always suck but that’s why you don’t depend on 1 or 2 people in a team sport

I’m really shocked Halter isn’t getting any national honors. I understand the BIG 12 is bitter, but she’s probably been the 3rd most consistent player this season for us.
Like I said before, more motivation for her to be 2024 SEC Libero of the year >
